Chapter 1014: The Woman of Light
Ye Tianxin looked at the woman warily as she patted Cheng Huang’s back gently.
Cheng Huang lowered itself.
The elegant woman smiled faintly and said, “You don’t have to be afraid… If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn’t have asked for your name.” Then, she shifted her gaze to Cheng Huang. “A ten thousand-year-old Cheng Huang is indeed a rare mount. Legend has it that those who ride on Cheng Huang can live for 2,000 years. Girl, you’re very lucky.”
“Girl?” Appearance-wise, the woman did not look any older than Ye Tianxin. Moreover, she did not think the unfamiliar woman was jealous of her beauty that was untainted by smoke or fire. Based on the woman’s bearing alone, it could be seen she was someone of high standing.
The woman said, “I’m older than you.” Her voice turned gentle as she asked again, “What’s your name?”
To be safe, Ye Tianxin did not answer the question. At this time, her name and her appearance had long spread in the golden lotus domain. If this woman did not know her, it only meant that the woman was not from here. In the end, she only said, “I still have matters to attend to. Farewell…”
The woman said, “Cheng Huang is a rare Birth Chart Beasts. If it walks around like this, it’ll be easily discovered. It’s also smart; it’s able to sense danger. Unfortunately, it seems like it can’t bear to leave you in danger…”
Ye Tianxin was stunned. Everyone had a few weaknesses; one of hers was Cheng Huang. She hesitated for a moment before she asked, “Who are you”
“My surname is Lan…” She raised one of her slender hands and placed it on her shoulder.
Ye Tianxin said, “You’re a foreigner.”
“All the humans in the world are one.”
“What I mean is that you’re not from here,” Ye Tianxin said.
“You’re right.”
“What are you doing here?”
“Relaxing…”
Ye Tianxin frowned slightly. It was hard to believe. “Just relaxing?”
“Yes.” The woman’s answer was strangely simple and direct.
“Are you planning to capture me?” Ye Tianxin took the initiative to ask.
Lan Xihe smiled and shook her head.
“You want to catch Cheng Huang?”Ye Tianxin asked again.
Lan Xihe still shook her head again.
Ye Tianxin said, “Alright then… I still have matters to attend to. Farewell.”
Lan Xihe quietly watched Cheng Huan rise to its feet before making its way to the white-clad woman.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the forest on the other side of the lake, black figures appeared one after another.
“This is bad.” Ye Tianxin frowned and patted Chenghuang’s back. “Cheng Huang, let’s go.”
Cheng Huang stomped on the ground with his four hooves.
Boom!
It soared into the sky.
Several black figures appeared in the sky as well. One after another, black avatars surrounded Cheng Huang and Ye Tianxin.
Ye Tianxin knew with her current cultivation base it would be impossible for her to escape; she could only rely on Cheng Huang now. She patted Cheng Huang’s back again and asked, “Are you confident?”
Cheng Huang let out a cry, seemingly confident.
Ye Tianxin nodded and threw the Amorous Hoops out in all directions.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Amorous Hoops collided with the avatars, creating ripples in the sky, before returning to Ye Tianxin.
Alas, Ye Tianxin did not manage to breach their defenses at all.
The weakest among her opponents had ten leaves and there were two or three Thousand Realms Whirling experts.
How could Ye Tianxin possibly win?
“I didn’t expect to meet a Birth Chart Beast here. How lucky!”
“The Alliance’s information is not wrong… The Black Tower Council has stopped extending their reaches here for now…”
“The Black Tower Council can’t take care of itself now; it doesn’t have time to control the golden lotus domain.”
Ye Tianxin ordered, “Let’s go.”
Cheng Huang leaped into the air and pounced toward the weakest avatar.
The two Thousand Realms Whirling avatar appeared in the sky immediately. They brought their astrolabes to the front and began to press them down.
Ye Tianxin hurriedly used the Blue Waves Technique to defend herself, but it was futile against the astrolabes.
Boom!
Cheng Huang’s huge body made it a big target; the astrolabe landed on its body. It grunted in pain and fell down.
Boom!
After Cheng Huang landed on its feet, it looked around before it swept its tail out, causing hundreds of towering trees to fall.
“Girl, Cheng Huang doesn’t belong to you. Scram!” The two Thousand Realms Whirling avatar blocked Ye Tianxin’s path.
How could Ye Tianxing give up on Cheng Huang? She said, “If you dare touch it, I’ll make sure you die without a burial ground.”
“With your strength?”
“No, because I’m a member of the Evil Sky Pavilion,” Ye Tianxin said.
“Evil Sky Pavilion?!” The two cultivators looked at each other in dismay as their flashing Thousand Realms Whirling avatars stood next to them
“The higher-ups said not to provoke the Evil Sky Pavilion for the time being.”
“It’s indeed difficult… but it’s not impossible…”
“What do you mean?”
The stronger cultivator made a gesture of slitting the neck.
The stronger cultivator said, “Kill all of them!”
Following that, dozens of cultivators swamped forward. Clearly, they intended to kill them to silence them and destroy the evidence.
Cheng Huang roared; its hair stood on end.
At this moment…
“That’s enough…”
Lan Xihe’s voice was soft, but everyone clearly heard her words.
When the cultivators surrounding Cheng Huang turned to look, they saw a graceful woman with exquisite features walking in the air. Her hair was an eye-catching blue.
Lan Xihe moved to Ye Tianxin’s side with a smile on her face.
“Who are you?” The Thousand Realms Whirling cultivator asked with a frown.
Lan Xihe’s face remained expressionless as she continued to walk on air. She did not answer the cultivator.
“Fine. Since you’re seeking death, you have no one to blame.”
Cultivators swarmed forward immediately.
Lan Xihe ignored them and stood in front of Cheng Huang.
As the cultivators lunged at her, she gently raised her hand. A light so dazzling that it could rival the sun, the moon, and the stars appeared in her hand.
All of a sudden the air froze and Prima Qi stagnated. It was as though everything was frozen by a mysterious and terrifying energy.
“You!”
Dozens of cultivators were horrified, but it was too late. They felt the air rapidly shrink.
After a moment, the stillness shattered like glass. Along with that, the cultivators with broken bodies fell into the lake one after another.
The originally clear lake was now stained with blood.
“…” Ye Tianxin looked at the woman in shock. She had never seen such power before.
“You’re from the Evil Sky Pavilion?”
“Yes…” Ye Tianxin grew even warier.
“They’re from the Dark and Light Alliance?”
“The Dark and Light Alliance?” A confused expression appeared on Ye Tianxin’s face.
Lan Xihe shook her head and smiled faintly as she said, “I saved your life; aren’t you going to thank me?”
“Thank you. But who are you?” Ye Tianxin asked, puzzled.
“That’s not important.” Lan Xihe chuckled. “Since we have fate, you can call me sister if you don’t mind.”
“…”
Cheng Huang shook its head vehemently as it let out a cry.
Ye Tianxin said helplessly, “You saw it too…”
Lan Xihe was not angry. Instead, she was patient and her tone was gentle as she said, “Cheng Huang, can you help your master form the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar? Can you protect your master forever? Do you think you can stay in human cities forever?
Cheng Huang was dumbfounded by the onslaught of questions. Indeed, these were its concerns.
In fact, Cheng Huang’s intelligence was not inferior to Ying Zhao.
When Lan Xihe saw Chenghuang, she toyed with the idea of taking its life heart, but she had changed her mind now.
Cheng Huang, naturally, could not answer the questions despite its intelligence.
Lan Xihe said, “Time will prove everything…”
‘What?” Ye Xin was confused. She could feel the woman’s vast power; it was as though the woman controlled life and death with a single move. Why would such a person want to befriend her? There was no such thing as free lunch in this world.
Lan Xihe said curtly, “Fate.”
“Fate?” Ye Xin grew even more confused.
“You like white; I like white. Isn’t this reason enough?” Lan Xihe said.
‘What kind of reason is this?’
Before Ye Tianxin could speak, Lan Xihe said again in a tone that brooked no argument, “Every month, on the first and fifteenth day, you’ll come to the West Lake to look for me.”
Subsequently, Lan Xihe vanished into thin air; leaving an afterimage behind.
Ye Tianxin looked around in a daze, feeling as though she was dreaming. However, the blood swirling in the lake told her she was not dreaming.
